While there is more, I want to reach out to those of you around the world how have checked my blog from time to time.

I am simply interested in hearing from golfers everywhere with their comments and ideas for anything they might like me to cover on my Radio/Internet Show and or in my writing.

Having been a teaching professional for over 30 years and not a writer or talk show host, I am always reaching out to my listeners locally for ideas. 

The Golf Swing is one of the only things I know about. That said, I am one who is always learning.  In all my years of teaching I have NEVER told a student they had to 'do something'.....Teaching is about communication and as such it is about how people process or learn...and every person learns differently.  This is why I am so very interested in what people think and feel about their swing.

For this old teacher, the Internet has opened a brand new opportunity for ME to learn from YOU....and this is why, I believe, I have been somewhat successful for the past 30 or so years.

I do hope to hear from you soon with what YOU think about YOUR golf swing and what YOU  might like to hear discussed on the myNEGM LESSON TEE Radio/Internet Show that is heard around the world every Wednesday from 10:05-11:00am Eastern Time Zone.

I do hope to hear from you.

Cheers and good golfing!

Young Ryo Ishikawa using the MIRROR TEE at the Bridgestone!

For those of you around the world who saw my post about the new MIRROR TEE, 19 year old Ryo Ishikawa of Japan has been practicing with the new tee and has been using the MIRROR TEE at this week's Bridgstone Invitational!

Maybe it is time to take a look at this new tee that REALLY will improve your driving stats including trajectory, distance while minimizing slices and hooks.  I'm an old teaching pro that has tested and designed many products and THIS works! Just ask RANKMARK.

Yes it is illegal but I have to say if you are a 'fun golfer' and don't compete, maybe you might want to give the POLARA a try...'for fun'!

CHEERS!

Golf Channel's Casey Bierer joined me on the LESSON TEE Show

Casey Bierer, former reporter and producer at THE GOLF CHANNEL joined me last week on the LESSON TEE Internet/Radio Show to tell listeners of his new project.

Casey and his brother Don have a new gig.  They are General Managers of a golf course in New England.  That's right, Casey has changed hats and is Co-GM with his brother Don of Wentworth Hills Golf Club in Plainville, Mass. 

With Don's experience in golf course acquisition, construction and operation in addition to a very successful career as an asset manager AND Casey's background in marketing and media, this duo promises to turn an absolutely terrific facility that has had one bad management team after another since opening in 2001 into a profitable facility worthy of being one of the premier facilities in all New England.

In addition to Casey filling us in on his new project, we also chatted about some of his experiences over this 6 years as a reporter and producer at THE GOLF CHANNEL.

Casey will be joining me from time to time on the LESSON TEE Show with updates on the club's 'road back' to profitability.

TOUR Player Brad Adamonis' waiting pays off! He is in the U.S.OPEN!!!!

With several alternates from other sites already landing spots in this year’s Open, ahead of Brad are Team New England’s J.J. Henry and Zack Bird.
With 5 alternates already having been given spots, there is a chance Adamonis could get the call.
Several factors are in play and the way the USGA operates, my ability to ‘get it right’ would be like jumping out of an airplane without a parachute. So, best if we wait together until next week to see if northern Rhode Island’s favorite ‘golf’ son gets a spot in the 2011 U.S. OPEN at Congressional Country Club.
THIS UPDATE: Brad has made it! Adamonis along with Gary Woodland were the final picks by the USGA to compelte this year's US OPEN field for 2011.
What I can share from a teaching standpoint is this: In my chats with Brad, (on and off the myNEGM LESSON TEE Show), as the season has progressed, and keeping an eye on his stats, I will tell you I am very optimistic Adamonis will regain his status on the PGA TOUR soon. His perspective surrounding his steady improvement and the way he seems to be taking the normal ‘speed bumps’ of competitive golf in stride has this ‘ole teacher’ more steadfast than ever this Cumberland, RI native is on the right track.

Will he get in to the U.S. OPEN this year? We will see, but in answer to the question: Will Brad Adamonis ever play in a U.S. OPEN? My answer is a resounding YES!
